Synopsis:
Have you ever faked a restroom trip to check your email? Slept with your laptop? Or become so overwhelmed that you just unplugged from it all? In this funny, eye-opening, and inspiring film, Director Tiffany Shlain takes audiences on an exhilarating rollercoaster ride to discover what it means to be connected in the 21st century. Equal parts documentary and memoir, the film unfolds during a year in which technology and science become a matter of life and death for the director. Using a brilliant mix of animation, archival footage, and home movies, Shlain reveals the surprising ties that link us not only to the people we love but also to the world at large.
Connected has inspired thousands of people to reevaluate the surprising ties that link us all to the ones we love and to the world at large. This groundbreaking film has been featured at hundreds of organizations, schools, corporations and conferences as an entertaining cause-related catalyst for conversation about what it means to be connected in the 21st Century.
